There’s so much that we want good n’ GONE. But here’s the thing: nothing is leaving your life or your thought patterns until you give it the light of your consciousness—your love.

Our Connection to the Sun + Moon
Why do we do meditations on the Full Moon? What’s the “dark of the moon?” Does… it have anything to do with Pink Floyd? Is the moon “feminine” energy and the sun “masculine” energy? And why should we pay attention to this at all?
I hope you will forgive me
In the personal development realm, discussion around Forgiveness tends to focus on us Forgiving the other person for what they apparently did.
But what about asking for Forgiveness? And, if I may, I want to take that a step further and talk about asking for Forgiveness from the person you think owes YOU an apology.
Doing New Things for the RIGHT REASONS
There are times in our lives when we bust out of habits and we do something new. Sometimes it’s the ego pushing us to prove ourselves. And sometimes, it’s our Soul moving us toward real expansion.
In this episode, I’m talking about aversions + desire (they are mates.) And the drive to be a more conscious person by doing new things, versus, the ego’s compulsion to check off impressive sh*t on a bucket list.
Your Beautiful Role in the Collective Shadow
It’s fairly easy to conceive of a collective consciousness that is loving. Essentially, people who are compassionate, kind, uplifting to the world. They’re everywhere. When we think of this light, we tend to see it as a collective phenomenon.
Speaking Tips that Translate Everywhere You Show Up
Let’s take a break from shadow work and relationship healing to tawk about tawkin’––in public…
Harmlessness and Speaking Truth
Harmlessness as a virtue––as an embodied energy, may be one of our most demanding calls as a species. It’s a commitment to the Universal Truth that can be hard to uphold. Higher Love is a tall order in these days of division. Here’s a short podcast on why the high road is actually highly efficient––and makes miracles happen.
A Prayer for Protectors: The Shantideva Prayer
When we pray for the strength to protect others, I believe that we magnetize more Light into our lives. Because it’s universal law–to give is to receive. A very powerful prayer for these times is the Shantideva Prayer. It helps impress on our psyches that WE ARE TOGETHER in everything, in all life’s experiences.
Shift from “protection mode” to being THE CHANGE
What if we didn’t expend so much energy being in “protection mode”? What would that free up? Protection is often necessary. But there’s another posture that can be more energizing. What if we held the belief that love is our greatest protection?
4 questions to generate love in your relationships
Tell me everything. How’s your heart? What can I do to help? What’s good for us? These 4 VERY SIMPLE, VERY DIRECT QUESTIONS will nourish every kind of relationship. In the podcast I go deeper into the intention and gifts of each statement. Please listen in… to your hearts.
Being discerning vs. being judgemental
Keeping it “positive” does not preclude having strong opinions… Opinions used for uplifting humanity are sacred.
Shedding even more. Can you feel it?
Shadow work, Faith, rebirth, and shedding—#GraceforImpact is a plea to make 2020 change us for the better.
Make this change you
Why do some of us change as a result of suffering and some of us don’t? What creates revolutions?
Scenario planning—with Faith.
Faith is believing that the Light exists, even when it’s dark.
Lighten your load so we can make it to the other side
Binding identities, grievances, expired dreams, regrets, possessions. Can you feel the pressure to let go?
Things to do when you’re in pain
60+ things to do when we’re in pain. Wise, devotional tools and practices I use to heal.
Your suffering is a holy event
Our deepest pain is the entry point to our authentic power. That’s why we do shadow work.
Sacred reprioritization
If the majority of the world slowed down because of one unifying singular crisis event… would THAT be enough for you to give yourself a break?
Your initiation into Grace
Grace holds tension. Between joy and sorrow; sanity and falling apart; the past you’ve outgrown and your radiant future. Grace balances “bothness.” She is spiritually mature. She turns pain into power.
Grace for Impact. My new podcast series. (Trailer inside.)
Grace for Impact is the best of my love, my training in scenario planning and future studies, and my Faith. I was intending to write a book next year called, Things I Do When I’m In Pain. Here it is. This poured out of me in a week. It’s not perfect, but it’s on time.
New podcast ep! Heart + Head Leadership with Marie Forleo
I’m back in podcast mode—and I brought a friend! Marie Forleo. Forleo and I have huddled many a time about creative conundrums and opportunities. I trust her smarts. Her book, Everything is Figureoutable, entered the NYT bestseller list at #1. Because that’s how Forleo does things—impeccably. And her yearly marketing and business development program, B-School is about to roll out.
3 very big lies we fall for on the way to waking up.
We’ve got to fall for some lies to get to our truth… These are the lies that dogma, false power, and all kinds of commercial industries are built on. And many of us have built our spiritual lives on one of these shaky foundations. This is a wake up call.
When (not) to give up
This episode is full of contradictions, so if you’re looking for a straight shot—it’s better to look within. As always. I start in the realm of general life stuff, then we move into the deepest possible query: choosing to stay alive.
The Principles of Flow. And how to ride it.
When we say, “We’re going with the flow,” what we’re really saying is that we’re riding The Creative Principle. The stuff of LIFE FORCE. Flow isn’t New Age chillaxin’—it is alert relaxation. Wide awake trust. When you’re in the flow, you’re constantly responding to the subtle cues that Life is giving you.
Naked prayer
How do you “give it over to God”? It starts with knowing this: your pain is what God is most urgently interested in—like any parent with their child. “Let’s get this healed so you can go out and play.” When we’re brave enough to bring our pain to the surface, The Divine can take it from there.
Suffering. And the radiance you’ll find on the other side.
We can’t instantly LEAP from pain to joy, from suffering to radiance. There are steps—a healing sequence.
The narcissist + the empath. How to have compassion AND healthy standards.
Pulling off the New Age blinders and getting out of toxic situations…
How to be classy when things don’t work out as expected
Loss brings out our truest self. And while grace doesn’t come naturally to all of us—especially when we lose—it can be cultivated… if you go out of your way to be grateful. Let me tell you a story. It all starts in the ladies room, in a snowy city, five minutes before my curtain call…
When you can’t have a direct conversation, go for the Higher Self.
When things are brutally difficult with somebody, sometimes the healthiest thing is to have a non-verbal, encouragement convo. When you can’t safely/bravely express yourself in this material realm, then use an esoteric channel—speak to the other person’s Higher Self.
Heart-centered manifesting: plans that also serve the collective.
It’s too late in the day, and too hot, crowded, and a little too painful on the planet, to be focused solely on personal attainment. Reach for the dream job, healthy bod’, love of your life—AND incorporate other people’s wellness in your vision. This is a heart-centered how-to.
